Joel and Kait’s wedding!

Very reasonable pricing for a night of fun! We used Dave & Travis as DJs for our wedding and they did a phenomenal job with every little detail. Music was great and keep the dance floor dancing!

Couldn’t ask for a better DJ!

As a professional wedding planner/coordinator myself, I knew Dave was going to be our DJ without a doubt when it was my turn to get married!
I've worked with many DJ's over the years and Dave and his company DTR Productions consistently delivered with so many different & diverse mutual clients, and in so many creative ways, the mark of someone who has both integrity & passion in his profession coupled with many years of experience.
A Class "A" performer who puts the Bride & Groom way above anything & everything else so they shine on thier big day. Dave also doesn't draw any unnecessary attention to himself, as I've unfortunately seen in some other DJ's I worked with over the years.
When it came time for our planning process Dave as a full time operator, was always there for me and my husband to answer any questions, no matter how small or trivial, which put us at ease. He also created a custom mix mashup for my husband & his mom to dance to, which was flawless!
The wedding party introductions are always handled with ease and excitement, but when it comes to the music and the party - the main reason we hired him - he blew the roof of the venue! Nobody I've ever heard in my own wedding planning career hits all the marks quite like Dave, but this happens only after a more quiet & reserved music set for dinner time, so our guests could talk and hear each other, which is much appreciated by everyone.
Dave did for us everything a wedding DJ should do! We recommend Dave all the way and then some!

DTR - Incredible Wedding DJ!! 10/10

Dave/DTR was an incredible DJ for our wedding in May 2025! Cannot recommend him highly enough. He worked with us to plan the music and he listened to what we like and what we don't like and gave us exactly the wedding we wanted! There was NEVER a time when the dancefloor was empty! No matter the kind of wedding or event you are planning, he can give you the event you want. He is experienced, fun, entertaining, and knowledgeable and I will use him again!

Everything was perfect

Everything was absolutely perfect. The music was versatile and appropriate. Everyone raved about the music. The MC was great and so was the person running the photo booth. Every guest LOVED the photo booth. All around just an amazing team that did an amazing job

Get ready to party!!

We're so glad we went with DTR for our wedding!! If you're like us and looking for some classic fun, BOOK THEM! Dave handled everything we asked for and more. We made all of our playlists ahead of time and he took it from there. We had a smaller wedding of 54, but even then there were very few lulls on the dance floor. Dave always made himself readily available for any of our questions or concerns before the wedding, always provided us with the utmost sincerity and guidance when planning. It was great to work with such a reliable DJ!!

Dave is great!

Dave and I go way back to when he was DJ'ing the NJ club scene. I was already familiar with his responsiveness, and his attention to reading the room. Dave is your go-to for any event whether it be formal or super casual. I've seen him dazzle large and small crowds. I strongly recommend Dave!

Will use DTR Productions again!

Dave was amazing to work with! We had a backyard wedding and he came to check out our space to ensure that he came prepared with necessary equipment. He was responsive to our questions and suggestions. He made it clear what we needed to do to make sure the special songs/layout went seamlessly on our wedding day. He kept our guests engaged and on the dance floor all night. We will be using Dave and his team again for future events and will be recommending him to family and friends!

DTR rocked the house

Dave was great from the start. He was very communicative from the beginning and was flexible to meet the various genres of music that we wanted to provide for all generations at our wedding. Everyone at our wedding was on the dance floor and had such a wonderful time. DTR also provided a photo booth, which was a blast! We were very happy with this company.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
